We could ask the christians what they were doing there because they WOULD come.
We could ask questions about the atheists wager.
We could continually ask why you don't believe in a god.
The drinking game would be a permanent fixture.
Which other "questions" do you think might be asked?

Notice...most of their questions are directed about God.
"Why does you God? Does Jesus love you? If Jesus really loves you? If God is omnipotent?..."

I mean it's like asking "does Harry Potter love you?" or "how did Snow White rise from the dead?" Well ask the author!
It's amazing the amount of effort they put, trying to search the Bible for flaws and contradictions. Why don't you guys put that effort into something more useful, like science? I thought Atheists like to take use of their time, and don't spend much time analyzing fictions, or am I wrong?

Is it a double standard to say that it was wrong for the white people to come to America and use the Indians' land but then say it is ok for illegal immigrants to come into our country because whites did it. It is like saying because the whites did a bad thing means that it is ok for anyone to do it.

It's just kinda stupid. It's nothing against God, and I bet he would agree. I think it started because some idiots thought a sneeze made you vulnerable to evil demons sneaking up your nose. Blessing you immediately, of course, drove them away.
Nowadays, it's so awkward. Do you say it, do you not say it?
And then if somebody says it to you, you have to thank them.
Yeesh. Let's just all agree to end it, what do you say?

The Count:-
"True Salvation is all about a Person, Jesus Christ, who is God's Son, who came to die on a cross for YOUR sins & mine."It may be true to one-Reciting Raama may be effective to somebody else.But when you recite Raama you implicitly ask for your OWN welfare--in sanskrit:-Ma= for me(Us) ----Raa=the one who bestows the best of all on me(Us)--Sa=He is Raama--the choice is yours!! -so you can not say reciting Raamaa is fruitless.

The New Testament is a book compiled from 34 gospels which were all written by men as historical accounts of the life of Jesus. They are not revelation and the Absolute word of God.

Highly intelligent scholars admit their uncertainties concerning whether certain letters labeled "Paul, Peter and Jude" are authentic; and uncertain about who wrote the Gospels, and how they are related (i.e., literary redaction hypotheses); and also uncertain about what the historical Jesus, said, did, or believed about himself and his mission?

Even James D. G. Dunn and N. T. Wright admit various uncertainties.

WELL I HONESTLY BELIEVE NO 1 KNOWS WHEN IT WILL HAPPEN, BUT I KEEP HAVING THESE DREAMS AND VISIONS OF THE WORLD ENDING THIS FALL, OCTOBER OR NOVEMBER. I THINK THAT WE ARE IN THE LAST DAYS BECAUSE IF YOU LOOK AT REVELATIONS IN THE BIBLE WE ARE LIVING IN THESE TIMES. GREED, SELFISHNESS....ECT. THE WAR....IT SAYS THAT THE LAST DAYS WILL BE WHEN THE GOVERNMENT SAYS NO MORE RELIGION, NO MORE PREACHING, AND REMOVE THE WORD GOD FROM MONEY. WELL I JUST HEARD THAT THE GOVERNMENT WILL BE REMOVING THE WORDS "IN GOD WE TRUST" FROM ALL MONEY VERY SOON, AND A WOMAN WAS REPRIMANDED FROM USING THE WORD GOD IN A SPEECH AT HER COLLEGE GRADUATION LAST WEEK. SHE WAS TELLING EVERYONE IN HER SPEECH ABOUT THANKING GOD FOR HER ACCOMPLISHMENTS ECT. DO YOU THINK WE ARE IN THE LAST DAYS???!!!!

We finally found a house to rent. It took them two months to clean out the garage
We were told AFTER we moved in that the other side of the yard is not ours until they clean it up.I did the yard because the weeds were up to 4 feet tall..It took me 13 hours to get it down..they said they always let the tenents do what they want with that side.They put a pile of trash in the corner that has been covered so long that the weeds grew over it and the tarp has disinigrated.The old oven is behind the garage along with mounds of garbage they added to it after they cleaned the garage.Cement blocks from his trial and error all over.Wood bords.
When they do show up they are here they arrive at 4:30 in the afternoon like clock work,Then they do not leave until very very late at night usually 11:00.We feel so invaded. We see them more then we see our own parents..How can I express to them with out getting kicked out to get the trailor out as well as to come during regular hours.. HELP

If Adam didn't sin, he'd be "perfect". If he didn't eat the fruit, we'd be living in a world of Robots.

How do we show all different emotions in a "Perfect world"?

Would masturbating over the same sex be a double sin?
That is, the sin of homosexuality, and the sin of lust.

Thank you for your clarification.

This Fat B*tch that Lives downstairs is watching every move I make, Im 18..A LEGAL ADULT. Every night I babysit my 7 year old sister... And every night or every few days I go to the 7-11 (across the Street) or do quick errands. My Kid sister NEVER wants to go anywhere unless it involves fun. So Last Night I went to turn in a library book, and to get gas and when I came back she was gone. My mom picked up her because the fatfukk threatoned to call the police. Shes also been talking sh*t about my friends and that is none of her concern. She has like 4 babys and is under social services because of her fattass 13 y.o. daughter causing problems. How Do I deal with her? She Needs to Mind her own Fukking Business, shes obviously doing it because I sent her an angry letter telling her to mind her business and calling her a snitch, and having nothing better to do.. So How do I deal With her? I Hate feeling like a damn prisoner and not being able to go to the damn 7-11 because of her bullsh*t.

There are several derogatory replies to this question and I reported abuse. How long does it take for Yahoo to remove it? Is anyone monitoring this or are you all asleep?

He is an older man who is supposed to run errands for us in the office so we won't have to divide our attention between contracts, clients and stuff like picking up parcel, etc. However, this individual does everything in his power to avoid his responsibilities. Getting the owner's attention to this matter is out of the question. Even the sales manager knows about it and has decided not to do anything.

The problem is that this guy has the bad habit of starring at our chest (no matter how professionally dressed we are), and every time someone engages in a conversation with him, unavoidably ends with a sexual joke.

I have decided not to speak to him unless absolutely necessary but he tries to talk to me all the time...it makes me uncomfortable!

My job is very difficult but I love it. I need to have every bit of attention set on what I am doing at work, and keeping this person away is becoming a problem for me...help!
